Wrapping up Windstar's electrical work and I notice one, final, hokey, length 
of wire-with-hidden-glass-fuse - the binnacle light.   This was wired to the 
12v hot wire on the starter, back to a big clunky pull switch awkwardly mounted 
at the engine control panel, and thence to the pedestal.
My first inclination is to connect this directly into the running light 
circuit.  The only reason I can think of not to do this is the very, very 
remote (in my case, academic) possibility of wanting to take compass bearings 
at night at anchor.  (I could connect to both anchor light and running light 
via diodes, but...  Really....)  Splitting hairs maybe, but I welcome any 
thoughts on this beautiful summer Sunday.
FYI - I had a minor wiring epiphany and posted.
